get vanilla
A little company called Lussumo took the time to rethink the way web-based forums should work. They wrote a new one from scratch. Vanilla is standards compliant, made with PHP, CSS, and XHTML, and it turned out spectacularly well. I’ll be installing it here soon, really only as a test, but we’ll see how it goes. It’s completely free and open source, just like the company’s other product, File Browser. File Browser is a clever piece of software that automatically builds a web photo gallery complete with thumbnails and navigation out of a directory full of image files. It looks very handy.
Hey Chris, thanks for showing me this. It was SO simple to install, I will try to incorporate it in to my blog, gustanza (dot you know what) soon. You can view it there. I had been looking for a simple message boad system for so long. Both me and my fellow Thunderdomer’s can not check personal emails at work, but are allowed to look at blog’s. So this system works for us. Good luck on trying to plug it in to your site.
